James Purefoy

The hustle and bustle of the holidays may be over, but there are some very exciting new shows debuting in January including The Following. We won’t miss this buzzed-about, critically-acclaimed new drama starring Kevin Bacon. It sounds like a winner to us, with Bacon playing Ryan Hardy, a former FBI agent hired to re-capture a devious serial killer, Joe Carroll (played by James Purefoy) who escapes from death row. Having brought the killer to justice once before, Hardy soon discovers that Carroll has been covertly communicating with an outside network of killers. The two enemies join in a battle of wits as Hardy fights to neutralize Carroll and his cult of followers. We’re already hooked! Tune in with us to watch the premiere on FOX on Monday, January 21 at 9/8 CT.
